No changes from the previous edition: plenty of bonus material (demos and early live), deluxe 6 panel digipack (this time with matte finish instead of total UV) and 20 page booklet filled with rare photos, flyers and liner notes!

NECRODEATH & SCHIZO “Mondocane” digipack CD out now!!

Posted in Necrodeath, Releases, Schizo on August 7th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

After the insane release party at the Armageddon In The Park festival that saw Necrodeath, Schizo, Bulldozer, Jester Beast and other Italian Thrash monsters share the same stage, we are stoked to announce that the official re-issue of “Mondocane” (1989) for the first time ever on digipack CD is finally out on FOAD Records and available at scareystore.com !! For those who still aren’t familiar to this Italian underground gem, “Mondocane” was a late 80s hyper-thrashing combo formed by half early Necrodeath and half Schizo “Main frame collapse” era members to deliver 10 whiplashes of rapid fire Thrash-core uniting the bands’ peculiar style to a basic S.O.D. flavoured imprint.

This blasting Thrash mayhem has been entirely restored and remastered at Toxic Basement Studios and restyled/repackaged in an elegant digipack sleeve with unreleased photos from the 1989 studio session. If you are a fan of these two bands’ early outputs (above all Necrodeath‘s “Fragments of insanity” and Schizo‘s “Main frame collapse“) and Ingo’s corrosive vocal delivery then look no further and enjoy the Necroschizophrenia!

RUPTURE “Corrupture” gatefold LP + flexi 7″ OUT NOW on FOAD Records!

Posted in Releases, Rupture on July 15th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

A dream coming true, RUPTURE’s “Corrupture” on FOAD Records! This 1993 ultraFAST Hardcore milestone had never seen a vinyl reissue in 2 full decades, making it almost impossibile to find copies of the original 10″ pressing at a reasonable price. Here at FOAD we are very proud to release the best sounding version of one of our favorite records ever, housed in an high quality gatefold cover which features all the lyrics and a collection of reviews and quotes about these Aussie ape fuckers. The audiophile treatment received by “Corrupture” adds more punch to the obsessively fast sound of Rupture, making all these classic songs like “Human Race”, “Fucken Old Cunts”, “A Is For Asshole” and “OD On THC” more powerful, nasty and pissed. Every note here drools with filth, desire to offend and totally anti-PC attitude, standing out in the Hardcore history as one of the best examples of one-of-a-kind band. Rupture were unique, “Corrupture” was unique. Now you have the chance to hear it like never before, finding out that you can bring new life to 26 classic songs making them sound more aggressive than ever. As soon as you’ll open your copy you’ll find another gem: a doublesided flexi 7″ EP with Rupture’s pre-“Righteousfuck” rehearsal demo recordings (11 songs, 1 of which never heard before), unreleased until today!

NOTE: “Corrupture” has been pressed in 300 black copies with black flexi EP and a “green goblin” die hard edition of 100 splatter vinyl records with white flexi EP. Due to a mistake by the pressing plant we have only 80 white flexi EPs, so the other 20 die hard copies will feature the black one, while the last 20 regular records will be sold without the bonus EP. In two words : ACT FAST!

SCHIZO / NECRODEATH “Mondocane”: ristampa su FOAD Records in anteprima all’Armageddon In The Park

Posted in Events, Necrodeath, Releases, Schizo on July 12th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

(scroll down for the English version)

In occasione del festival “ARMAGEDDON IN THE PARK 2013” che si terrà Sabato 3 Agosto a S.Giacomo degli Schiavoni (Campobasso) e che vedrà riunita per la prima volta sullo stesso palco la “unholy trinity” italiana composta da Bulldozer, Schizo e Necrodeath, siamo fieri di presentare la ristampa ufficiale in digipack CD del famigerato “Mondocane: Project One” (1989), un classico del Thrash nostrano sfornato da una line-up d’eccezione che comprendeva 50% della prima incarnazione dei Necrodeath (Peso, Ingo, Claudio) e 50% di quella Schizo di “Main Frame Collapse” (Alberto, S.B. Reder ecc) per 10 schegge che fondevano lo stile delle due band a un’impronta base che poteva ricordare i mitici S.O.D. newyorkesi.   “Mondocane” viene presentato con audio interamente restaurato e rimasterizzato al Toxic Basement Studio e una confezione rivisitata con foto inedite della session in studio nel 1989.  Anteprima assoluta all’Armageddon In The Park che vede sul palco ben 4 band che negli ultimi anni hanno avuto materiale edito da FOAD Records: Bulldozer, Schizo, Necrodeath e i torinesi Jester Beast. Al festival sarà presente il nostro stand, ultima occasione per intercettarci durante l’estate!

The unstoppable FOAD forces are preparing the last summer attack: if you’re around in Italy in August, there’s a festival that you can’t miss: “Armageddon In The Park 2013” on Saturday, 3rd August 2013 in Campobasso, uniting for the very first time on the same stage the Unholy Italian Trinity of BULLDOZER, NECRODEATH and SCHIZO, three monster thrashers that have been ruining eardrums for 3 full decades! For this special event we will have in first preview FOAD‘s official re-issue of “Mondocane: project one” (1989), a late 80s hyper-thrashing combo formed by half early Necrodeath and half Schizo “Main frame collapse” era members to deliver 10 whiplashes of rapid fire Thrash-core uniting the bands’ peculiar style with a basic S.O.D. flavoured imprint.  “Mondocane” has been entirely restored and remastered at Toxic Basement Studios and restyled/repackaged in an elegant digipack sleeve with unreleased photos from the 1989 studio session. Come and get it at FOAD‘s stall (the very last we’ll do for this exhausting summer) and don’t forget that this festival will unite 4 bands that have been released on FOAD in the last few years: not only Bulldozer, Schizo and Necrodeath but also the mighty Jester Beast from Torino, one of Italy’s oldest and most devastating Thrash acts!!

CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER “Life in grave + rarities” LP and BULLDOZER “The exorcism: Demo 1984” LP out now on FOAD Records!

Posted in Bulldozer, Cryptic Slaughter, Releases on June 26th, 2013 by foadmaster2022

Our hottest releases of the summer are finally available and ready to ship! Both of them have been displayed in first preview at FOAD‘s stall @ the Hellfest Open Air Festival in Clisson, France – so those who came to visit us there already got their limited die-hard copy. Now we are starting to ship all pre-orders, we will definitely catch all mailorder issues before leaving for the Obscene Extreme Festival next week, so no worries. NOTE: so far the previously announced summer schedule of our releases has been perfectly respected, anyway the last few things planned will be subjected to some changes: RUPTURE “Corrupture” gatefold LP + flexi disc will hopefully see its release party at OEF 2013, but it’s still very uncertain. TUMOR 4CD boxset and YACOPSAE “Discoregraphy” 2CD will come out later due to factory delays. Good news is that we’re doing our best to release NECRODEATH / SCHIZO “Mondocane” digipack CD in time for the Armageddon In The Park Festival in Campobasso, Italy on Sat. 3rd August 2013.  Ok, so back to our brand new CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER and BULLDOZER gems, here’s a detailed description on each of them:

CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER “Life in grave + rarities 1985/1988″ gatefold LP with 36 page zine/booklet

California’s thrashing Speed-core pioneers CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER team up with FOAD Records for an incredible vinyl treasure finally giving the right treatment to their legendary “Life in grave” Demotape 1985 and to an accurate selection of ultra-rare/unreleased recordings ranging from their 3 piece line-up era (1985) to the “Convicted”/”Money talks” days. This release has been in the works for months until we found the top sounding masters in existence and restored them for the best possible audiophile result when pressed on vinyl. Side A includes the band’s Demotape “Life in grave” adding 2 rehearsal tracks from the same period, one is a speeded up HELLHAMMER cover and one is a super-raw version of VENOM‘s “Welcome to hell”. Side B is all focused on the “Convicted”/”Money talks” 4 piece line-up and includes various live recordings and a good sounding rehearsal 1986. All songs here are performed even faster than how they were played on their classic albums. This is how Goodbadmusic.com introduced “Life in grave”: “1985 was a good year for music – bands like SLAUGHTER, NYC MAYHEM, VOOR, WEHRMACHT, HIRAX, DEATH, REPULSION and CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER amazed me and they still blow me away today! Especially this one here with its youthful urgency, its unpolished power and enthusiasm. And stilistically, this was very refreshing. Could you say whether this is more metal or more HC? Does it matter to you?” Being this one of the most important FOAD releases to date, we also dedicated the right passion to the packaging: a stunning reverse board gatefold sleeve and most of all a 36 PAGE zine/booklet stuffed with rare photos, interviews, zine excerpts and gig flyers. If you’re into any kind of fast music be it Thrash, Hardcore, Grind or PowerViolence, you are MAD if you miss this!!

Die-hard edition in “half n half” coloured vinyl (half black with yellow splattering / half red striped with black)

Regular black vinyl

BULLDOZER “The exorcism Demo 1984 + Fallen angel” gatefold LP

The ultra-fucking-rare BULLDOZER Demotape 1984 with kult “Fallen angel” 7″ added as bonus. One of the most incredible findings in FOAD‘s hunting career: only 3 copies of this demo exist, one was sent to Roadrunner, one to King Diamond and one was recently exhumed in AC Wild’s basement and delivered to us for a top quality treatment. This is the recording that got Bulldozer signed to Roadrunner in 1984 and it sounds killer.. different and rawer versions of classics ended on their debut slasher “The day of wrath”. Dark, demonical Black/Speed Metal from the most savage guts of Italy’s early 80s Metal inferno, for anyone that worships the early releases from Venom, Bathory and Possessed, plus the “Fallen angel” session adds that Motörhead touch making this an instant masterpiece of rawness and sheer power. Check out how AC Wild introduced the unreleased Demo recordings: “This tape was sent to Roadrunner and Roadrunner signed us in 1984. It was also submitted to King Diamond to ask if he was interested in being the producer of our album but he refused saying that this stuff sounded “too Punk”!! Comes in a stunning gatefold cover filled with rare/unreleased photos, alternate artworks and liner-notes.

Die-hard edition limited to 100 copies on splatter vinyl (iridescent blood-red mixed with gold + dark speckles) including an embroidered patch with the band’s logo

Regular black vinyl
